@LeCavalier I really like your interpretation of this song, I've had a lot of similar ideas to your reasoning. I would like to add a little more weight to your explanation. Ever heard of the movie "Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem"? It was a movie with no dialogue, and its soundtrack was the entire album Discovery front-to-back. It told the story of an alien band that was taken from their home planet, sent to earth, made to look and act humanly, and turned into a worldwide hit. I won't ruin the ending for you! In the part of the movie where "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" is played the aliens (unconscious) are run through a completely automated sequence where they are removed of their alien clothes, painted and hair dyed to look human, removed of their alien memories, dressed in human clothes, and implanted with mind control devices. The idea of an assembly line fits in well with the automated process, and later on in the movie it is revealed that this process has been performed 5,554 times before, hence "Hour after Hour" and "Our work is never over." In addition, the idea that the items being worked on are being made better also fits. The aliens had an amazing musical sound in the movie; a sound "Harder, Better, Faster, and Stronger" than others' work. The aliens were worked upon to be good enough to perform to a human audience. Well, that's my thinking anyway. |
